And tonight will be a very pivotal game in terms of mentally believing you have an edge. Allow me to elaborate...
Most people give golden state a pass, we assume they are bored, it's the regular season, blah blah blah. Cleveland deserves that same cushion but from a media standpoint isn't getting that luxery. One thing Cleveland did do is beat Boston. It's easy to point to Haywards injury and chalk that up as why they lost but I disagree. The reason why they lost is because Cleveland wasn't on cruise mode that game. It was a meaningful game, everyone was ready to play.
I expect that same energy tonight because not only are they currently 3-5, but they are facing the team everyone expects to have next if Cleveland and/or Boston cannot maintain. Washington, they got issues currently but wizard fans know we play great (usually) vs the better teams. It's easy to write Cleveland off if you go by there last 4 games but I know tonight will be a battle. Both teams have much to prove tonight, who do you think will win it tho
